Big Mac 2010 - sign in

First topic message reminder :

Back home safe and sound at around 9pm on Sunday night. Had a great run down. The weather was fantastic and amazingly the roads were virtually empty.

Had a small wildlife related incident on the way. The UK's population of pigeons is down by one when it found out it couldn't out fly a Ninja! Fortunately it hit my shoulder and not the bike or my visor. Why don't they just fly up! Am expecting to be a little bruised. That will balance out the bruising on the left shoulder from some heavy weight Scottish insect that also failed the Ninja test this weekend

I think it was about 1050miles in total! I've yet to make the final checks, but the bike performed flawlessly. Although a longer tank range would be better - God bless the Thundercat.

A huge thank you to Rosco and DBD for arranging and leading/tail ending the group. Another brilliant Scottish rideout and superb social. As was said to me 'it's been worth every minute'. Thanks to all who arranged/cooked/cleaned up the breakfasts, prepared food/drink extras and generally help make the weekend work.

Great to meet up with everyone. Pencilling in BM 2011 already.

Thank you all very much, don't think I really appreciate what I have done, a short while back did Norfolk and then Devon and Cornwall - so pretty much covered the lot in a few months, top to bottom and across possibly the widest bit.

How's the cat? sounding any better?

I'm not actually sure, been on it everyday kinda got used to the noise. There is definitely more noise now than when I left (according to Pam and what I can hear on the video). You'd never have guessed anything had happened to it, went purrfectly the rest of the trip.

I guess both are due some TLC and a full service.......I'm sure Pam knows a good mechanic who can sort you out

Service was booked en route home, appears quite a bit of work was required will most likely book the bike in later in the week doubt I'll be smiling when it does go in, dreading what may have happened to that plug

Fantastic Steve.....welcome back!
